Actually, Marko's blog explains the issue beautifully. I thought for a
second there he was going to show us how to decode what the misconfigured
router is expecting to see for an AS, but alas the situation remains as it
ever was. :-(

 

I think it's safe to assume we won't ever be asked to accomplish the
impossible. If our L3 drawing and our task language tells us to configure a
given topology, it would be absurdly unfair to then have a misconfiguration
in place where we have no access/insight. Perhaps the fact that this cannot
be somehow inferred from debug and/or error messages was the whole point of
the lesson? Or perhaps the local-as thing was the point of the lesson? Not
entirely clear without knowing the entire lab scenario.

Thanks Scott.

 

But in the LAB Exam ; we dont have access to the BackBone ; how to overcome
in such scenario.

 

Sorry to say but proctor behaves wierd sometimes.

I remember a comment from a proctor to my friend

 

Comment => "The question is in plain English ; dont ask such question"

The "BGP-3-NOTIFICATION" is telling you what the problem is (peer in wrong
AS). Recall that when you do confederation, your AS as seen by the outside
world is what you configure as your 'bgp confederation identifier nnn'; the
'router bgp nnn' command is where you specify your sub-as.
